Fight the Giants Chapter 477

Chapter 477 Destiny

Huo Xi returned to the carriage, and the tears she held back all the way fell down.

"Girl!" Vanilla and Xia He were terrified and were about to step forward. She was stopped by Mama Mama's eyes.

sighed, moved over to hug her.

patted her. Seeing Huo Xi lying in her arms and weeping silently, his heart ached so much that he didn't speak, just hugged her quietly. The two servant girls had never seen such a girl before, and their eyes were red.

After a long while, after Huo Xi calmed down, Mama Ma said, "Girl, although Young Master Gong is a good candidate, his family is not suitable, so that's fine. According to the status of a girl, she really shouldn't be married to a businessman." .”

Huo Xi slowed down and shook his head: "I never thought about marrying into an official family."

"Why?" Mother Ma was a little surprised by her thoughts.

Huo Xi's eyes are far away, the way her mother ended in front of her that year, even after so many years, she still can't forget it.

"One emperor and one courtier, I don't want to become a victim of court struggles like..."

Nurse Ma sighed, her original master was never like this.

"But girl, businessmen are after profit, and they will not be soft when it is time to give up."

"I know. But I believe that I am in a business, and I have the ability to protect myself. The business has money, but no power. As long as I use enough money to open a way and buy power... No matter how bad the result is, there will always be life. And I don't want to be trapped in backyard."

Nurse Ma was silent.

Vanilla and Xia He looked at each other, why couldn't understand what the girl said today.

"Miss, now it seems that the girl may have thought wrong before. People may be like that, the more they don't have, the more they want. The clan wants higher power and money, and the businessmen want money. I still want to climb the ranks. They all talk about government and business, I am afraid that the two cannot be separated. For a big family like the Gong family, if they want to maintain a century-old foundation, it may be the best way to be close to the official family."

Huo Xi looked at the shaking car curtain, yes, maybe she was wrong.

If you don't have the ability, you can't protect yourself anywhere.

And if you have the ability, no matter how muddy it is, you can break through the sky. For the first time, she felt the importance of status.

No status, everyone can come and step on it, and they can make decisions at will.

She wanted to avenge her mother and take back for Nian'er what should belong to him, but she never thought about going back to the Zhang family.

Maybe she was wrong.

In a society where the weak are prey to the strong, only by becoming stronger and standing taller can we not be swallowed by others. A little sacrifice, a little grievance, a little pain, it's worth seeing whether it's worth it or not.

Huo Xi's eyes became firm.

"Mommy, go directly to the pier, let's go back to Beijing."

"Girl, our luggage is still in the inn!" Vanilla and Xia He hurriedly said.

"I'll take the vanilla to clean up, and the girl will take Tayue and Xia He to the pier first." Mama Ma nodded in agreement, and she didn't want the girl to stay in Huai'an any longer.

Placing Nanny Ma and Xia He down, Huo Xi went directly to the pier.

Drink Menjiang in the southwest.

The 100,000 troops brought by General Zhang Fu from the north are camping nearby. Waiting for Mu Sheng from Yunnan to bring an army of 100,000 to join him.

Going to Annan to suppress the rebellion, Emperor Yongkang appointed Zhang Fu as the commander-in-chief and named him General Zhenglu. Mu Sheng is General Zuo Zhengyi. Mu Sheng was defeated before, but this time he was still entrusted with a heavy task by the emperor, ordering him and Zhang Fu to attack Annan together.

No way, the terrain in the south is complicated, with many mountains, waters, deep forests, and many obstacles. The Southwest Army is more familiar with the battlefield situation.

Zhang Fu got out of the big tent, facing the mountains and the thorns all over the mountains, his brows were furrowed.

Said to the military adviser beside him: "This wild land is full of thorns, and it will take a long time for Mu Sheng's army to cut down the mountains and open the way."

The military adviser nodded: "Yes. Otherwise, a little Annan, why bother to defeat Mu Sheng's army before defeating Mu Sheng's army. Now he is coming back again, relying on these terrains. The wild thorns are not a big deal, but this The Annan rebellion army now uses the river as a security, and they have 600 ships in their hands. If we want to cross the river, we have to cut wood and build ships."

Zhang Fu's brows were furrowed. Before, in Mobei, where there was a flat river, it was useless to cut thorns to open the way, but also fell trees to build bridges and build ships.

"I heard that Mu Yan has some knowledge about logging, so I summoned him to ask."

"Who?" The military division looked puzzled. Who is Mu Yan?

"It's Mu Sheng's eldest son, who was adopted to the second generation Xiping Hou Muchun."

"Ah, it's him."

Thinking about it, the military division couldn't help shaking his head.

Born in the second room, he was adopted by his childless uncle as an heir, thinking that fate favored him, but he didn't know that his uncle had not survived for a few years, and the title did not fall into the hands of his eldest son, and he was given the title by his biological father.

It doesn't matter if the biological father has inherited the title. I heard that he, the biological eldest son, was ignored and asked the concubine's eldest son to be crowned heir.

Tsk tsk, is this a good fate or a bad fate.

The soldiers quickly found Mu Yan.

"General." Mu Yan lowered his eyebrows and cupped his fists at Zhang Fu.

The military adviser couldn't help but look at him, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, tall and straight figure, he is quite talented. pity.

"Yes." Zhang Fu nodded lightly, "I heard that you have a lumber shop in the southwest, and now we are afraid that we need to cut down trees to build bridges and build ships, and it may delay for a long time. Do you have a good plan?"

"Don't dare to say a good strategy. The general is the commander-in-chief. I will only listen to the general's orders. I can write a book about logging. I will order the stewards to come, bring soldiers to the mountains to log, and teach them shipbuilding skills."

"Very good. I heard that loggers 'enter the mountain once a thousand and leave the mountain five hundred'. As a general officer, I don't want my subordinates to lose their lives on unnecessary things. The mission of a soldier is naturally to die on the battlefield. Get what you want."

"Yes. The general is as strong as he is, and he is extremely respectful."

"Haha, you are a good boy. I think you are better than your father. Your father... your uncle is going to join our army. Are you going to your uncle's account, or..."

"I am willing to listen to orders under the general's tent."

"Okay. From now on, you can go to my account to listen to the order."

"yes."

Zhang Fu looked at the young man in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. Sweeping away the sorrows of many days.

"Are you engaged?"

Mu Yan's eyes flashed, and he shook his head: "No."

Zhang Fu happily smashed his fist into his palm. Never, very good very good. There are still two school-age daughters in his family, how can the fat water flow to other people's fields, no matter how bad he is, he still has several nieces.

The more I look at it, the more I like it.

On the other side, when the He family sent someone to the inn to pick him up, the room was already empty.

When Gong Ziyi heard the news, his eyes were dull, and he could not regain his senses for a long time.

"Yi'er, the matter is a foregone conclusion. Unless the daughter of the Chen family voluntarily withdraws or something happens, she will be your first wife. Your adopted sister..."

Gong Fang didn't want to admit it, but after seeing Huo Xi and Chen Jingci, he had already regretted it.

I only blame myself for being angry with Yi'er at the beginning, and not stopping my daughter-in-law, letting her make Yi'er's marriage with the Chen family early, even if it delays for a few days.

But this matter has been accomplished, it is useless to say more.

"Yi'er, let's be commensurate with her brothers and sisters in the future. Our family will take care of her shop more in the future. Neither you nor our family can afford to offend the Chen family." Gong Fang sighed.

Except for Gong Fang, Gong Shuo, He Shi, and the elders of the family took turns preaching, Gong Ziyi didn't resist at all, just listened blankly, didn't say a word, just stroked the Pisces Pei that Huo Xi returned.
